Ford F-150 Windshield Replacement

Matching the Right Glass by VIN

The right windshield for a Ford F-150 depends on its model year and trim. Features can include a forward-facing camera behind the glass for driver-assist systems, a rain sensor, a heated wiper area, acoustic laminated glass, or a heads-up display. Because those features require specific glass, Skyview matches the part to your Ford F-150 by VIN. Giving us your VIN when you book helps us bring the correct glass in one visit.

F-150 Windshield and Back Glass, by Generation

The F-150 has changed windshield specification several times, and the glass that fits a 2014 will not serve a 2024. These are real examples of what the catalog returns for an F-150 VIN.

2013 to 2014. Windshield DW01982GTYN, green tint, acoustic, with a Ford oval printed into the third visor frit. No camera, so no calibration. It lists three interchangeables: DW01747GTYN, DW01749GTYN and DW02066GTYN.

2021. Windshield DW02658GTYN. This is where the job gets more involved. It carries a forward camera requiring a dynamic calibration, rain-sensing wipers, a humidity sensor, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a Ford oval in the third visor frit, a SoundScreen acoustic mark, and a specified 53-degree camera aperture. The rain sensor needs either an adhesive pad or optical gel fitted with it. Interchangeables listed: DW02683GTYN, DW02865GTYN and DW02872GTYN.

2024 and 2025. A 2024 F-150 windshield is DW02958GTYN and a 2025 is DW03039GTYN. Both carry a camera with a dynamic calibration, acoustic glass, rain-sensing wipers and a humidity sensor, and both list the other as an interchangeable along with DW02974GTYN. On the OEM side the numbers for these have already superseded more than once, which is why we confirm the current number at quote time rather than working from an older reference.

Back glass. Three different forms, three different parts. A 2013 F-150 back glass, DB12147YPYN, is a three-piece power sliding assembly in privacy gray, heated and encapsulated. A 2021, 2025 and 2026 power sliding back glass is DB13278YPYN, which lists DB12399YPYN as interchangeable. A 2022 fixed back glass is DB12986GTNN in green tint, with DB12397GTNN and DB12397GTYN interchangeable. A fixed back glass will not substitute for a slider and the heating grid connections differ, so back glass is quoted as its own job.

The 53-degree aperture, and why it matters. The camera on a 2021 F-150 does not look through the whole windshield. It looks through a sized opening in the black ceramic frit, and that aperture is part of the specification. Glass that fits the opening and seals correctly but has the wrong aperture will not calibrate, because the camera sees less than its software expects. This is the kind of detail that does not appear on a parts invoice and shows up instead as a calibration that will not pass.

We take the VIN, pull the exact part number with its features, calibrations and required accessories, and quote from that. Our guide to auto glass part numbers explains the system, and our windshield features guide explains what each feature does.

ADAS Camera Calibration After Replacement

A Ford F-150 equipped with a windshield-mounted camera needs that camera recalibrated after the glass is replaced. Skyview performs ADAS calibration to the documented manufacturer procedure, restoring your driver-assist systems to proper alignment before the vehicle is returned. See our ADAS calibration service for more.

Chip Repair, Side & Back Glass

When the damage to your Ford F-150 windshield is a small chip, a repair is often possible instead of a full replacement — preserving the factory seal and the original glass. We also replace side and back glass on the Ford F-150 (door, vent, and quarter glass and the rear windshield), with the same lifetime workmanship warranty on every job. See chip repair, side window replacement, and back glass replacement.
